Embodiment Construction

[0021]In the discussion of the Figures, the same numbers will be used throughout to refer to the same or similar components. Further it is noted that many pumps, valves, non-condensable gas removal equipment, pressure exchangers, vapor compressors, and the like necessary to achieve the flows shown have not been shown for simplicity since such equipment is well known to those skilled in the art.

[0022]In FIG. 1 a process is shown which includes a turbine system 12 for the production of electric power which includes a low-pressure compressor 14, a high-pressure compressor 16, an intercooler 62, a combustor 28, a turboexpander 20 and an electrical generator 22. Systems of this type are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be further discussed in detail.

[0023]The hot exhaust gas from turbine system 12 is utilized in a heat recovery system 36 in which heat is recovered from the exhaust gas stream in a plurality of heat exchange zones 38, 40, 42, 44, 46 and 48 to produce ste...

Abstract

A method and a system to produce a distillate stream from an aqueous stream containing at least one dissolved solid by a thermal distillation process using at least one of a heated aqueous stream from a turbine system intercooler and a stack heater as a heat source.

Description

RELATED CASES[0001]This application is entitled to and hereby claims the benefit of the filing date of U.S. provisional application No. 60 / 773,045 entitled “A Method For Producing A Distillate Stream From A Water Stream Containing At Least One Dissolved Solid” filed Feb. 14, 2006 by Michael J. Eddington.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to the production of a distillate stream from a water stream containing at least one dissolved solid, such as seawater, brine, brackish water and the like, by a thermal distillation process using a heated aqueous stream from at least one of a compressor intercooler, a stack heater and the like, as a heat source.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]In many parts of the world, potable water is in short supply. Many processes have been proposed and used to remedy this shortcoming by producing potable water from brackish water, brine, seawater and the like. Such processes are typically used to recover distillate from water which conta...
